Terrifying Drag: Zulfikar Ali Bhutto/Faluda Islam + Kareem Khubchandani/ LaWhore Vagistan

 Two US-based South Asian drag queens, Faluda Islam and LaWhore Vagistan, discuss the aesthetics of their practices: pastiche as a mode of re-making the world; death as well as conviviality as strategies in drag; camp theory in relation to race and ethnicity; and “queer Muslim futures.” This talk was curated and moderated by Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU, and co-sponsored by the NYU Center for the Study of Gender & Sexuality.
